STRONGS G152:
αἰσχύνη, -ης, , (αἶσχος [cf. αἰσχρός]);
1. subjectively, the confusion of one who is ashamed of anything, sense of shame: μετ’ αἰσχύνης suffused with shame, Luke 14:9; τὰ κρυπτὰ τῆς αἰσχύνης those things which shame conceals, opposed to φανέρωσις τῆς ἀληθείας, 2 Corinthians 4:2 (evil arts of which one ought to be ashamed).
2. objectively, ignominy: visited on one by the wicked, Hebrews 12:2; which ought to arise from guilt, Philippians 3:19 (opposed to δόξα).
3. a thing to be ashamed of: αἰσχύνη τῆς γυμνότητος (genitive of apposition) nakedness to be ashamed of, Revelation 3:18, cf. Revelation 16:15; plural [cf. Winer's Grammar, 176 (166)] αἱ αἰσχῦναι basenesses, disgraces, shameful deeds, Jude 1:13. [(Aeschylus, Herodotus, others) Synonym: see αἰδώς, at the end.]
